Down five runs in the sixth inning with no signs of life on offense, the Mets (63-50) appeared in line for another lackluster loss. That is, until the offense woke up and almost provided one of the best wins of the 2025 season. But several missed chances and a defensive blunder in extra innings led to not a lackluster loss, but the kind of loss that keeps you up at night. In the series opener...
Good morning, Mets fans! On Friday, Baseball America released an article naming 15 standout prospects outside of the top 100. The article named A.J. Ewing, who has been phenomenal for the St. Lucie Mets early in 2025. In 17 games, Ewing owns a 1.129 OPS with 19 RBIs and 13 stolen bases. Ewing was a fourth-round pick in the 2023 draft and is quickly making a name for himself in the Mets system....
Good morning, Mets fans. The Mets lost to the Giants on Friday, 8-7, as the team found yet another brutal way to lose. The Mets entered the eighth inning up 6-2, but surrendered five runs before allowing another in the ninth. It was the fifth time in the past 11 games that the Mets had the lead after five innings and ultimately gave it up. Right now, everything that could go wrong is going wrong...
The Mets’ minor league affiliates struggled on Sunday as each team lost. Among the highlights were Calvin Ziegler (High-A) and Jonah Tong (Low-A) pitching phenomenally, recording 20 strikeouts in 8 1/3 shutout innings between the two. Triple-A Syracuse Mets (4-4) 2, Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders (4-4) 7 Box Score DH Ben Gamel: 2-for-4, R, HR (2), RBI, 2K 3B Luke Ritter: 1-for-4, R, HR...
The Mets (0-4) entered Monday’s series opener against the Tigers (4-0) searching for what has been an elusive first win of the season. Sean Manaea was tasked with righting the ship, taking the mound against Reese Olson and the Tigers. Manaea did everything he could, but the Mets imploded in the 10th inning to secure their fourth straight loss to begin the season. It was a classic...
After winning three in a row against the Diamondbacks, the Mets continued their homestand Friday night with the first game in a three-game series against the Reds. David Peterson got the start for New York, while flamethrower Hunter Greene was on the mound for Cincinnati. The Mets played behind for most of the game, briefly tying it on a clutch home run from Pete Alonso, but they immediately...
Poor pitching and offense have defined the Mets following the trade deadline. In a Saturday night matchup between Tylor Megill and Kyle Gibson, it was more of the same as the Orioles defeated the Mets 7-3. New York has now lost five consecutive games while being outscored 37-14. In his return to the big leagues after a shaky stint in the minors, Megill was hit hard right from the outset. The...
It’s been hard to find any positives with the Mets’ performance on the field this week. Following a sweep at the hands of the dreadful Royals, the Mets traveled to Baltimore and demonstrated more of the same sluggish, uncompetitive play Friday night as they lost 10-3 to the Orioles. “We have to play better,” Buck Showalter said following the game. “Some people that are getting...
Good morning, Mets fans. The Mets began the second half of the season on Friday night with a 6-0 loss to the Dodgers. Brandon Nimmo led off the game with a double, and the Mets were unable to record a hit for the rest of the game afterwards as Julio Urías shined. Justin Verlander also struggled in the game, giving up three earned runs over five innings while walking six batters. The loss is the...
The Mets hosted the Giants for the first game of a three-game set on Friday night. The game officially marked the beginning of the second half of the season for the Mets, and if this game is a sign of things to come, the team will only continue to disappoint. After a five-iinning start by Carlos Carrasco was followed up by two solid combined innings from Jeff Brigham and Brooks Raley, David...
If there are two main reasons why the Mets have been a sub-.500 ball club this year, it’s because of first-inning struggles and inexcusable mental miscues. When you fall behind early and consistently make mistakes, you’re going to lose more games than you win. That remained true on Friday night as the Mets fell behind due to multiple defensive mishaps and couldn’t get the offense going,...
Good morning, Mets fans! The New York Mets took on the Atlanta Braves down in Georgia away from the smoke that filled the New York air on Tuesday, where they dropped the series opener, 6-4. In the third inning, Francisco Lindor and Pete Alonso hit back-to-back two-run homers to put the Mets up, 4-1, after Ozzie Albies put the Braves in front with a solo homer of his own in the first inning....
